Despite the critical role of reasoning in shaping language teaching and learning strategies in higher education, prior studies have either separately examined reasoning or focused on one specific type thereof and language teaching and learning strategies. To address this gap, this study took a comprehensive approach by examining various types of…

This study aimed to evaluate the frequency of sleep and eating problems in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), the factors associated with these problems, and the relationship with the risk of developing depression and anxiety in their parents. In the study, 156 children with ASD and their parents were included. The Brief Autism Mealtime…

Contribution: This research provides insights into the applications of virtual reality (VR) in learning spatial reasoning, which could be utilized and developed in educational frameworks and settings, especially in science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM), and other aspects. Background: Spatial reasoning and VR are essential…

With crises such as epidemics, wars, wildfires, earthquakes, and hurricanes becoming increasingly more common in various parts of the world, it is crucial that schools become crisis-ready. Crisis-readiness lies partly in the ability of schools to deliver "emergency education" (i.e., education in crisis situations) promptly and…

Since ineffective foreign language (FL) vocabulary teaching has been shown in the higher education of mainland China, this study aims to achieve a satisfactory vocabulary teaching outcome through the construction of a computer-based systematic vocabulary teaching mode. Based on constructivism, the mode was established with three essential teaching…

Despite evidence that self-regulated learning ability is a strong predictor of academic achievement, effective learning and study strategies remain largely underutilized by students in higher education. In a time of extreme nursing shortage when prelicensure programs are operating at capacity, implications for course failure reach far beyond the…

Providing reflective opportunities for students to independently develop their metacognition and expand their abilities to make judgments about themselves as learners, including which learning strategies are personally most effective for any given task, have been shown to improve academic performance. We designed a metacognition-based intervention…

Listening strategies have mostly been investigated in contexts where learners listen to audio recordings. However, a much more prevalent and indispensable listening task in the classroom is listening to teacher input, particularly in the English Medium Instruction (EMI) classroom where the goal of learning is directed towards comprehension of…

The study investigates the impact of a blended teaching approach combining Cooperative and Project-Based Learning (CPBL) on the critical thinking abilities and learning efficiency of vocational nursing students, aiming to determine its effectiveness compared to traditional teaching methods. The study employed an experimental design, involving…

Purpose: This study aims to extend understanding of individual innovation by examining how learning strategies and relational dynamics influence the generation and promotion of innovative ideas. By investigating the extent to which the relationship between learning strategies and innovation varies as a function of a social factor (i.e.…

With the recent data revealing the performance status of Filipino learners in science aggravated by the negative effects of the pandemic, a concerted effort is directed toward exploring how learners learn science concepts in the current educational landscape to address issues of poor conceptual understanding and a learning gap. This qualitative…

Aim/Purpose: The purpose of this research is to examine the effect of computer-assisted gamification on the learning motivation of computer programming students. Background: The teaching-learning of computer programming involves challenges that imply using learning environments in which the student is actively involved. Gamification is an…

Indonesian 15-year-old students' educational achievement has proved to be significantly lower than the international average based on one of the most prominent international large-scale assessments, OECD PISA. This prompted our interest in Indonesian students' cognitive development during secondary schooling in comparison with that of students who…

An increasing number of German schools have suspended teacher-directed learning (TL) in favor of self-directed learning (SL) modules. We used the broaden-and-build theory and self-determination theory as a theoretical framework to determine whether students in self-directed and teacher-directed learning environments differ in the interplay of…

Learners are often constrained by their available study time, typically having to make a trade-off between depth and breadth of learning. Classic experimental paradigms in memory research treat all items as equally important, but this is unlikely the case in reality. Rather, information varies in importance, and people vary in their ability to…
